Album: Tales FromTthe Badlands
(Verse 1:)
Walking through my neighborhood in the middle of July,
it feels it could be a hundred degrees on the north side.
(Pre-Chorus A:)
Everybody's cruising,
Man, it's a beautiful day.
Ain't nobody trippin',
I hope it stays that way.
(Hook:)
When the sun goes down, down
Nothing is the same
When the sun goes down, down
The streets are not a game.
It could be a good day
But that can always change
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down
(Verse 2:)
Walking through my neighborhood in the middle of July;
all the little girls and boys are playing outside.
(Pre-Chorus B:)
Oh, the water plug is on
Five-O is on patrol
And as far as I can tell everything is fine
Till the sun goes down
(Repeat Hook)
(Rap:)
Listen here; can I keep it real with ya?
I ain't a good rapper but I paint a good picture.
So here it is, it's my masterpiece.
I see beauty in the ghetto when I walk these streets.
(Bridge:)
The realist in the hood playing it loud waving my flag
Screaming Puerto Rican and proud
I hold my head when I walk through the hood now;
The Most High kept me safe when the sun went down.
Hook (2x)
